ATI 3d Hardware acceleration (Suse 9.0)

I have been trying to get hardware acceleration running under suse 9.0, with my Radeon 9600 card.

Since ati has not released a package for my version of X windows, i have tried to compile a kernel module, doing the following.

[code:1]
linux:/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod # ./make.sh
ATI module generator V 2.0
==========================
initializing...
cleaning...
patching 'highmem.h'...
skipping patch for 'drmP.h', not needed
probing for VMA API version...
doing script based build for kernel 2.4.x and similar
compiling './agpgart_be.c'...
compiling './agp3.c'...
compiling './i7505-agp.c'...
compiling './nvidia-agp.c'...
compiling './firegl_public.c'...
linking of fglrx kernel module...
duplicating results into driver repository...
done.
==============================
You must change your working directory to /lib/modules/fglrx
and then call ./make_install.sh in order to install the built module.
==============================
linux:/lib/modules/fglrx/build_mod # cd ..
linux:/lib/modules/fglrx # ./make_install.sh
- creating symlink
- recreating module dependency list
- trying a sample load of the kernel module
/lib/modules/2.4.21-231-default/kernel/drivers/char/drm/fglrx.o: couldn't find the kernel version the module was compiled for
/lib/modules/2.4.21-231-default/kernel/drivers/char/drm/fglrx.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.21-231-default/kernel/drivers/char/drm/fglrx.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.21-231-default/kernel/drivers/char/drm/fglrx.o: insmod fglrx failed
failed.

[/code:1]
Can anybody help me out?

Thanks
